Our journey from engagement to marriage by Shipra Saini (thriller book recommendations TXT) 📖

Preeti's point of view

It's been two weeks of the incident. I still afraid going to washroom alone. When I went to washroom I afraid that kartik may be come from behind. So I mostly avoid to go washroom and if it's emergency I only go when someone is present there. After that day I daily have nightmares and I started taking my sleeping pills again. After Siddharth's arrival I don't know but I didn't need them. Though there is nothing between us but his presence give me some kind of peace.

When he said he still live me somewhere my heart start dancing in heaviness but somewhere it is still afraid that he will leave me again.

"Preeti.." I came from my dream land and stood up immediately after hearing his husky voice. I took a look his whole body. He was wearing a dark blue business suit and white shirt under it which was fit him perfectly. I wonder how a someone look so handsome at whole day. He has the most perfect sculpture body. I can imagine his abs under his shirt.

"You know I'm all yours." He smirked and chuckled softly. His dimple is visible when he smile.

Oh! God he has the most killer smile. Preeti get yourself girl.

"Huh!..." I looked at him dumbly.

"Nothing...Good morning sweetheart." He said while kissing me on my cheek. My cheeks turned into red of his affection. I look here and there if someone see us but only few people is present because it's still early morning for everyone to come office.

"You need to stop kissing me all the time." I said with a fake anger.

"Why...? Don't you like it." He asked me.

"No I like it.." I said absentmindedly.

"No..,no..I mean yes..no I mean..." hhhuuhhh this man is corrupting my mind now.

He chuckled at my action. He knows how his presence and every touch affects me.

"Don't stammered baby...I will grant your every wish...you don't have any idea how badly I want to kiss you.." he whispered in my ear husky.

I felt a chill run through my spin when his hot breath touch to my neck.

"But before that I wanted to win your heart." He said looking into my eyes.

I never understand Siddharth. What is going in his mind. Which kind of a game he is playing with me but I know one thing that I am slowly falling for his trap in his game. I don't know if it is right or wrong but I wanted to fell for his trap.

"Be ready at 6 p.m we are going out." He said while kissing me again on my other cheek.

"I'm not going anywhere with you." I said with a little pout while rubbing my cheek where he just kiss.

"Oh! Really...because you don't have any choice" he said while pulling me to his chest by my waist.

"... and don't pout.... Now I really wanted to kiss you." He said while coming closer to my face.

"Don't you dare.." I said while pulling my face away from him.

"Then say yes like a good girl otherwise I won't hesitate to kiss you in front of everyone." He whispered.

"Okey I will come with you..but I have one condition." I said looking at him.

"Anything for you.." He said to me with a smile.

"I will pay installments of my loan to you which you paid." I said.

"No.." he said while taking off his arms around me and I immediately miss his warmth.

"You said you will grant my any wish." I said with a hope.

"Yes..but not for stupid things." He said.

"Okey then I will not come with you." I said while folding my both hands on my chest. His eyes travels from my eyes to my lips and then again meet my eyes. I see a different emotions in his eyes which I can't put a finger on.

He sigh and said, "okey fine."

Wow... that was easy. I thought he will argue with me again.

"Be ready at 7 p.m I will pick you from your home. Call me if you have any problem." He said and kissed me again on my cheek.

Then something strike in my mind. How would I call him. He put my phone number in his phone's block list two years back and in office he used to call me through intercom. I felt a ping of pain in my heart.

"How would i suppose to call you when you put my phone number in your phone's block list." I whispered and bent my head lower to hide the pain in my eyes.

"I delete it after a month. Why You never tried to call me after that? May be that is my punishment then that i hurt you so much." His eyes show the same pain as mine. After saying this he leave from there.
......................................................................

After lunch I came to his cabin to take his signature on some files but he is not there. I was about to leave when i heard the sound of phone rings.

I look at his table and started looking for the the phone. After some time I fined it under one file. Siddharth forget his phone in his cabin.

It stop ringing when I found it. I looked at the caller id and i saw 7 missed calls from keerti. I don't know how's she doing. Is she remember me? I wish i can talk to her once.

His phone started ringing again. This time also keerti is calling him. I wonder why is she calling this time. It must be late at night in New York. I was having a battle with my inner thoughts, should I pick her phone or not? Is she fine? Is there any kind of emergency that she calling him again and again? At last I decided to pick her phone.

"Hello.. bhayi..." I heard her voice after so long.

"Bhayi...why didn't you pick your phone. How many time i called you. Neither you pick my calls nor you call me back. Okey Let's forget all this, did Preeti bhabhi forgive you. I know bhayi it's not easy for her but don't loose your hope. Our family face a tragic two years back that we almost lost everything and you are the one who suffered a lot in these two years. No one is there for you but you proved yourself as best son but in between all this you lost Preeti bhabhi, whom you can't imagine live without and I'm sure she will forgive you because she is also madly in love with you.
